Determine your target net worth - where you want to be in the near-term and long-term future.
The following formula is helpful:
Target Net Worth=[Your Age−25]∗[1/5∗Gross Annual Income]
A 50-year-old with a gross annual income of $75,000 might aim for a net worth of $375,000 ([50 - 25 = 25] x [$75,000 ÷ 5 = $15,000])
Your net worth can be much more or much less than the amount indicated by the guideline.
